I didn't share all this too partly out of everything being such a shocker that going around to each platform and sharing it wasn't an immediate thought, and because of ... Well mostly that.
So as you know, Monday my grandpa passed away in his sleep. I finally got this bit of info shared on FB from family about what he was going through:
For the past 5 years, Dean James has battled Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis, along with other issues of advancing age. It took a toll on his body. Pulmonary Fibrosis is a horrible, progressive disease. The doctor described as lung tissue “turning to stone”. There is no cure, but he was lucky to quickly start an experimental treatment that slowed the progression of the IPF for 4 1/2 years. Over the last 6 months, the IPF caught up with him, and he needed to use a motorized wheelchair and oxygen 24/7. It finally forced him to stop working a job he loved. He was literally counting down the days to an appointment at UCSF in early September which he was hopeful would help him to breathe again.
This of course never got the chance to happen.
So, later in the day we're also told that without my grandpa's income + some agreement he had with the house owner, we're not going to be able to live here much longer. How when and where? I don't know. I get the feeling I won't find out until the last minute.
Then later in the day again, I test positve for Covid. So I've spent the last several days stuck in bed with chills/fever one day, headaches all around, and overall not being the best I could be.
In the meantime you can check these out, which I tried drawing the other day before the sicks became too much for me to draw with
